The motto is so true it''s almost ridiculous..."

It's ridiculous.  

If you bought a property with the intent to hold and several weeks later you find that it's horribly unsuited to your business model, or someone unsolicited offers you a ridiculous sum of money, or....any other reason that makes you change your intent and normal practice then that would qualify because your intent when you purchased it was to hold it.1031s are not known to be an audit trigger.  

If that's the case, I would suggest a scrape off, unless you can get the property at a ridiculous price that will support you selling it below market and paying for a post remediation mold inspection report.

Were they reasonable tenants before you made a ridiculous offer and then failed to meet your obligations?

A friend here in Florida is getting ripped off by his property management company after moving out claiming a tiny piece of scotch residue on the fridge door is gonna cost $400 to replace the whole door and ridiculous other items.What’s the proper way to challenge these charges and maybe even proceed with a formal complaint?

Ridiculous market it is

You have made up a silly comparison to try to bolster your opinion about so called service animals, but it only makes you look ridiculous.
